Yep, that sounds like that would do it. As far as API goes, I guess there should be a constructor ConstantScoreQuery(Filter filter, String field) If field is non-null, then the field norm can be multiplied into the score. Now how would the user go about choosing a truely constant scoring range query vs a constant scoring range query with the norms folded in? An additional flag called includeFieldBoost on ConstantScoreRangeQuery? -Yonik Now hiring -- http://forms.cnet.com/slink?231706 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
